Ay-yah, Richie, how on Earth did you upload such high-resolution scans? My scanner definitely can't do that.

We have a really nice scanner. That's actually the mid-range resolution it can produce. It can go so high, you need 20 GB of RAM to view the image.

Were in Davy Jones' locker do you get 20 GB of ram unless you're Bill Gates or operate that particle-collider thingy!?

*cracks knuckles*

First, you need a 64-bit operating system to read all of it. 32-bit only supports up to 4GB. Second, you'd need a hardcore motherboard that can handle all that. I found this one after a quick search. Third, you'd need lots of RAM sticks. That motherboard supports up to 6 sticks, so you'd need 5 4GB sticks. But we're cool, so we'll get all six sticks.

Do they have 4 gig sticks yet? And sheesh, that would be SO expensive...and yet, even most gaming rigs don't have 20 gb of ram...
